The world is a big place with so many different landscapes, cultures, and wildlife, it’s quite astonishing to think about it. The sheer vastness of it all makes it impossible for one person to really know everything—there’s just so much going on everywhere at once.

That’s why it’s no surprise that we often stumble upon things and facts that aren’t familiar to us. Some are more curious than others, but all allow us to learn something new about the world around us.

So, do yourself a favor and scroll down to read through the most recent collection of mind-blowing facts from the “Unbelievable facts” Facebook page. They are sure to impress you and will remind you of how interesting life can be.

If you scroll through these facts and realize that the majority of them are well-known to you, you might have a good chance of excelling in a pub quiz. Or, even you could take it even further and try your hand at World Quizzing Championships.

The event has been going on for 20 years now, taking place in various countries all over the world. The participants that sit down to take the written quiz all do it simultaneously on the first Saturday of June. They take it in two parts, each of them lasting 1 hour.

The topics you have to brush up on are extensive. They are:

  • Culture; Architecture, Fine art, Museums, Mythology, Philosophy, Religion, World cultures
  • Entertainment; Ballet, Classical music, Film Music, Jazz & World Music, Opera, Pop music, Radio, Television, Theatre (Popular/Musicals)
  • History; Civilizations, Current Affairs, Exploration, Famous People, History
  • Lifestyle; Costume, Design, Fashion, Food & Drink, Handicrafts, Health & Fitness, Human Body, New Age beliefs, Products & Brands, Social Media, Tourism

Here are a couple of sample questions for you:

In many Eastern belief systems, it is an incarnation or representation of a deity or holy man. Younger people will probably be familiar with the word used to describe it, not from religion but from internet chat rooms. Which word?

Unlike most birds which hunt by sight or hearing, this bird has nostrils at the tip of its beak. It uses these to smell and find its food. What is this bird, which known for another reason to most of us?

In 1905, a patent clerk from Bern published a number of articles that changed the world. The year 1905 was later called his ‘annus mirabilis’. Who was this man?

The circus is called Circus Roncalli and is probably the most famous circus in Germany. Their performance is pretty bomb.

The best part is they don't have to limit themselves to real, extant animals. They could add extinct animals such as mammoths, smilodons, megatheria, glyptodonts, ground sloths - to say nothing of dinosaurs. Heck, they could include fantastic animals like gryphons, dragons, unicorns, heffalumps - you name it!

So much better. I had a chance to go backstage at a Ringling Brothers Circus performance back in the mid-1980s. I stayed on the verge of tears seeing the animals. It was heartbreaking. They weren’t happy. They didn’t enjoy performing for people then going back to a tiny cage. I remember every single one of the whole line of elephants was swaying side to side. Elephants do that as a form of self-soothing when they’re upset, traumatized, unhappy. It’s making me upset and teary just remembering it. I have boycotted circuses ever since. But THIS I might go see, as long as there are NO live animals at all.

I really enjoy reading your comments, Tabitha. I, too, went to a Ringling Bros circus as a child in the mid-1980s although I didn't go backstage. Knowing what goes on in that industry always makes me feel riddled with guilt for simply having been there even though I was just a child and had no choice in the matter. Your description of the elephants swaying together brought me to tears.

Whilst I applaud the cruelty free aspect it's disappointing that they're still using animals, as it implies that their worth and existence is just to entertain us.

Once you’ve refreshed your memory, all you need to do is sign up for the event and go take the quiz. That’s all! You don’t need to be a Grand Master level quizzer to earn the right to be there or anything. You don’t even need to go through any qualification rounds. You have as much of a chance to win it as any other person who signed up for it.

But, let’s be honest here. If one would have to bet on a possible winner, one will probably pick one of the names that tend to end up in the top 3 pretty much every year. One of them is Pat Gibson.

Pat Gibson is an Irishman who’s been dubbed one of the smartest people in the world. Back in 2004, he won “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?” and walked away with 1 million pounds. Since then, the software developer has been participating in numerous quizzing championships, scoring 7 gold, 11 silver, and 7 bronze medals over the years. At the moment, he is the number one ranked quizzer in the world.

Gibson is, of course, not the only shining star of the quiz world. Another big name in the quiz world is Kevin Ashman. He is a proud owner of 17 gold, 13 silver, and 3 bronze medals from the British, European, and World Championships. He might also be familiar to British quiz show enthusiasts as he’s been a champion of Mastermind and Brain of Britain. He’s also one of the panelists on the Eggheads game show.

Reminds me of that parable where a religious man is caught in a flood and asks God to please save him. He turns down rescue attempts in good faith that God will come to his aid. Instead he drowns and in heaven asks God why he didn't save him God said I sent two boats and a helicopter what did you want me to do? - note: I didn't write this too well and it seems to have lost some of its impact in the translation.

I was there with my wife about a month ago. It's fantastic. My wife immediately wanted to stay. I told her that she would have to get rid of most her stuff because of the relatively small living quarters. She pretended that it would be no problem for her. ;) In the beginning, the inhabitants must have been catholic, citizens of Augsburg and pray three times a day. Interesting fact: Mozart's great-grandfather was very poor and lived there. If he wouldn't have got the help back then, there would have been no Magic Flute, no Nachtmusik and no wedding for the figaro. ;)

I remember. My first thought when entering was "what kind of cult have I walked in here?" Another reason might have been that many of their business practices especially in concern to unions and worker's rights were illegal in Germany, leading to a lot of lawsuits (Germany has very strict laws to protect worker's rights, and the unions are traditionally very strong).

In the middle ages, european pubs and inns had a similar perpetual stew. The pot of stew was just constanly held near boling point, so that no germs or otherwise harmful organisms could develop. Instead of making a new batch, new ingredients were added whenever necessary,. While sounding strage, it was probably safe to eat.

This is due to France being the only country that still has its "colonies", although the call them oversea departments by now (strangely except New Caledonia, that remains a colony up to date). Oversea departments are Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guayana, Réunion and Mayotte. There also are the "Collectivité d’outre-mer" terretories that have part autonomy but still belong to France, like French Polynesia and Saint-Martin, and part of antarctica ("Terre Adélie").

“The term "pH" was first described by Danish biochemist Søren Peter Lauritz Sørensen in 1909. pH is an abbreviation for "power of hydrogen" where "p" is short for the German word for power, potenz and H is the element symbol for hydrogen. The H is capitalized because it is standard to capitalize element symbols. The abbreviation also works in French, with pouvoir hydrogen translating as "the power of hydrogen".”
